My Project

At the beginning of the school year, parents have so much stress to prepare for: new clothes, shoes, and routines to prepare for the new year. Unfortunately, school supplies are not affordable for a lot of families. By creating a DonorsChoose, my goal is to alleviate some of the stress off of the parents (and students) as they begin a new school year. With this project, students will be provided pencil erasers, crayons, and scissors for daily supplies. Additionally, students will be provided with pencil pouches, and caddies to keep their supplies contained and organized. All of these are required to have a successful school year.

Everyone feels better when they have what they need to be successful!

I want to be able to help children have the resources they need to feel prepared and ready for 4th grade. Hopefully, with your support, I'll be able to provide the items needed for a successful school year!
